Sound Pure's Take
This Craviotto 8x14 Mahogany solid shell snare drum is freshly out of the custom shop. Accented with maple reinforcing rings, the 8x14 shell exudes big warm tone. The mahogany has a distinctively dark, earthy tonal quality derived from the more porous, less dense wood that naturally filters the snare's high frequencies. The reinforcing rings are used as a way to help counterbalance the mahogany's prominent lower overtones by stabilizing the shell, raising the pitch and increasing its projection without sacrificing its unique tonal range. The 45-degree bearing edges add a modern clarity to your sound while the shell brings out the warmth of vintage style sounds with ease. Whether in the studio or playing live, playing backbeats has never been more fun. Once you hit one of these incredible drums, you'll see why it's no wonder so many players go to Craviotto to find their sound.
